How it all started

It started with a song. Eleven-year-old Maja Mecan from Oława, who has been battling acute myeloid leukemia for almost three years and is now fighting her third relapse, recorded a track called Ciągle tutaj jestem (diss na raka) - I’m Still Here (Dis on Cancer) - with Polish rapper Bedoes 2115. The song became a viral hit within days, with all royalties going to the Cancer Fighters Foundation, which has supported people with cancer since 2015.
The track caught the attention of Piotrek Garkowski, a 23-year-old from Warsaw better known online as Łatwogang. With over 2.4 million TikTok followers, he had built a reputation for unusual challenges - the kind where he tries to break the record for most comments under a single post. This time, he announced something simple and absurd in equal measure: for every like on his TikTok video, he would listen to Maja and Bedoes’ song for one second on stream. Likes piled up - over 767,000 of them. The result: nine days of nonstop livestreaming.

The broadcast launched on April 17, 2026, with a planned end on Sunday, April 26 at 4 p.m. The original fundraising goal was 500,000 złoty. That target fell almost instantly.

The Guinness record falls

The previous Guinness World Record for the most money raised during a single livestream belonged to MrBeast. In August 2025, Jimmy Donaldson teamed up with streamer xQc for a 15-hour broadcast supporting clean water access (the Team Water campaign), pulling in over $12 million.
Łatwogang has already surpassed that figure. By the evening of April 25 - one day before the stream’s planned conclusion - the counter showed more than 50 million złoty (roughly $13 million). The numbers are still climbing. Poland is now heading for a new entry in the record books.

The moments people will remember

Doda called Magda Gessler live on stream and reconciled with her after years of public tension. She also placed a call to singer Michał Wiśniewski.

Sylwester Wardęga publicly made peace with Wersow and Friz (Weronika and Karol Wiśniewski) - closing what may be the longest-running feud in the Polish creator scene. To seal it, Wersow shaved Wardęga’s head live on camera.

Maffashion (Julia Kuczyńska), a pioneer of Polish fashion blogging, joined the stream remotely from Marbella. After the donation total crossed 46.25 million złoty, she shaved her head live on air.

Kasix, a streamer who survived a stroke at the age of 25, was the first woman on the broadcast to shave her head. She had been growing her hair out for five years and kept her promise the moment the counter passed 13 million złoty.

Edyta Pazura pledged to shave her head once donations hit 50 million. The milestone was reached today - and the person doing the shaving is her own husband, Cezary Pazura. The actor had already appeared on the stream earlier, playing table football against YouTuber Kuba Patecki. The match was given a full live commentary by Dariusz Szpakowski, one of Poland’s most iconic sports broadcasters.

Szpaku performed an intimate concert in Łatwogang’s apartment, inviting one of the foundation’s young patients - who turned out to be a huge fan - to sing along.

Jan Błachowicz stopped by alongside Fagata and donated his official UFC fight gloves to the auction.

Julia Wieniawa and Adam Zdrójkowski kissed on camera after the counter hit 37.5 million złoty.

Young Leosia publicly reconciled with her ex-boyfriend, influencer Kacper Błoński, and got a tattoo to mark the occasion. She also shaved off the eyebrows of fellow influencer Bagi (Mikołaj Bagiński).

Michał Pol, a Kanał Sportowy journalist, said goodbye to his hair on camera.

Maciej Musiał dropped by to clean up Łatwogang’s confetti-covered apartment. Sebastian Fabijański delivered a Quebonafide track in full rap mode. Robert Lewandowski backed the campaign and returned to TikTok specifically to support it. Anna Lewandowska performed the viral “six seven” trend.

The full guest list also includes Tomasz Karolak with the cast of Rodzinka.pl, journalist Krzysztof Stanowski, Friz, Izabella Krzan, Blowek, Kubańczyk, Tribbs, Gimper, Chivas, Bambi, Wojtek Gola, Oki, Żabson, Książulo, Konopsky, and AJ The Polish American.

Polish media were also present on the livestream, including TVN, TVP, Radio Eska, Radio ZET, Onet, as well as other major media outlets and social media platforms.

A sad note

The night before his tragic death, Polish MP Łukasz Litewka took part in the broadcast. It was likely one of his last public appearances on record.

What’s next

The stream wraps up on Sunday, April 26 at 4 p.m. Once it ends, an auction will begin featuring items collected by Łatwogang throughout the campaign - including a signed Robert Lewandowski jersey and an original Dennis Rodman NBA jersey signed by the player himself.
All proceeds go directly to the Cancer Fighters Foundation, headquartered in Gorzów Wielkopolski, with zero commission deducted along the way. Donations can be made via https://www.siepomaga.pl/latwogang, https://tipply.pl/@latwogang, or directly through https://pomagam.cancerfighters.pl/

What Łatwogang and Bedoes pulled off in nine days is likely to reshape the standards for Polish charity campaigns for years to come. And it all started with a song recorded by an 11-year-old girl singing about the one thing cancer cannot take from her: the refusal to be broken.
